Hello

[celticwitch]

Hi

I am a survivor of CSA well really incest by my brother...don't remember what age it first happened just know it stopped when I was about 15 and my brother was 25 and married. My abuser killed himself three years ago.

I just want to learn to deal with this before I go crazy. I am 50 years old, been married 22 years and only just this year told my husband about it. Without him standing behind me in my search for help I wouldn't be here. Wish I had told him sooner.

This has taken me hours to write.

Let my life and healing begin now......

Thanks so much everyone for the warm welcome.

I have been looking at some of the topics and when I get my nerve up I will post some of my memories. There are so many comming back to me and so far I have only been able to tell my husband a few. They are crowding in my head wanting to explode out.
